Train Trips 



GOLFING AT HAYDEN LAKE 


Golf is one of the chief attractions at Hayden on one 
of the prettiest and gamiest 18-hole courses to be found 
in the west. The teeing grounds are of clay, while the 
putting greens and fair greens are all of grass and are 
kept in perfect condition by constant attention and an 
extensive piping system. The course leads the player out 
through the great pines where constant care must be ex¬ 
ercised to avoid an out-of-bounds penalty. The fair 
greens, which vary from 175 to over 600 yards, are bor¬ 
dered much of the way by tall trees. Bogey for the course 
is 77 and par 70, but to obtain an even break with the 
Colonel requires real golf all the time. Several tennis 
courts and croquet grounds are located on the lawns over¬ 
looking the lake. 

Hayden Lake retains the attractiveness of the moun¬ 
tain wildwood, yet the tourist and vacationist may enjoy 
its charm in perfect comfort at Bozanta Tavern, a modern 
inn of the Swiss chalet type, overlooking lake and moun¬ 
tains. The tavern is thoroughly modern, steam heated, 
electric lighted, with several dining rooms, long distance 
phone throughout and a post-office in the building. This 
lake is well stocked with trout. Bass are abundant. Lynx, 
bobcats, deer, cougar and bear are in the mountains near. 

To Pend Oreille River and Box Canyon

Out through the orchards and gardens of the Spokane 
Valley, and then north through the hills and forests, 
touching Twin Lakes and Spirit Lake, the trip leads to 
the broad Pend Oreille river at Newport. The road winds 
along the river’s bank, striking north almost to Canada. 
It passes the interesting village of teepees housing the 
Calispell Indians, living in the most primitive state of 
any tribe today. The line passes a network of creeks and 
mountain lakes that abound in trout, and goes to Box 
Canyon, a wonderfully rugged pair of sheer cliffs en¬ 
closing a seething cataract of water. Along the line are 
hotels at Twin Lakes, Spirit Lake, Newport, and Meta¬ 
line Falls.

This trip combines the pleasures of a rail trip with 
the exhilarating steamer ride on the second largest body 
of fresh water in the United States. The evergreen-clad 
mountains drop down sheer on all sides of the lake, mak¬ 
ing a scene that rs most impressive. The lake is 50 miles 
east of Spokane, is 50 miles long and has a rugged shore 
line of 370 miles. The fishing is excellent. Great catches 
of trout and big char are made, trolling being favored.

and 2:10 p. m.; arrive Spokane, 11:30 a. m. and 6:00 
p. m. Round trip fare $6.00. 

Veritable cities under ground—labyrinthian passages 
leading here, there, and everywhere—small armies of men 
at work—miniature electric trains hauling the precious 
ore up and out to sunlight—these may be seen in the fa¬ 
mous Coeur d’Alene mining district. Huge mills that treat 
the ore are open to visitors. At Kellogg is the Bunker 
Hill and Sullivan, the largest silver-lead mine in the 
world. All the romance of mining is a workaday affair 
in the Coeur d’Alenes. The schedule permits one hour 
and 20 minutes in the camp, with a return to Spokane 
the same day. Those who wish to remain longer will find 
comfortable hotels in Wallace and Kellogg and other 
towns in the district.

This is one of the best lake and river trips available 
to the tourist. It includes the whole length of Lake Coeur 
d’Alene and up the Shadowy St. Joe. This excursion by 
electric parlor car train and steamer is made in perfect

steamer 15 miles to St. Maries or 25 miles to St. Joe city. 
The St. Joe river is said to be the highest navigable 
stream in the world. It is almost without current, and 
the reflections of banks, trees and mountains are so truly 
wonderful that they have made the title “Forty Miles of 
Shadows.” Trout and bass fishing may be had at various 
points. The fishing in the adjacent streams and smaller 
lakes tempts travelers to remain a few days longer at some 
of the points of special interest and beauty, where good 
accommodations are offered. At Harrison connection Is 
made for Wallace and the famous Coeur d’Alene mining 
district, and at St. .Maries connection is made with the

patches and productive garden tracts. There are miles 
and miles of colorful trees—in spring clad in coverings of 
blossoms, in late summer and autumn weighted with bur¬ 
dens of luscious fruits. You will see the big flumes car¬ 
rying water from nearby lakes and sending it through 
ditches to every tree and root. The orchards and gardens 
stretch out to north and south until they meet the pine- 
clad hills that enclose the valley. A delightful diversion

pressive scenery and a visualized story of richness. It is 
scenery that possesses the intangible and always sought 
for quality—it is “different." The fields of grain, varied 
in color as the coat of Joseph, swing up the slopes and 
vanish over the crests of the hills. The country is roll- 
ing, resembling nothing so much as the long, smooth 
swells of a calm sea. The Palouse country extends south 
from Spokane 70 miles to the Snake river and is an un¬

party at Long Lake. The entire Spokane river at this 
point drops 150 feet from the crest of this dam, which is 
made of solid concrete between perpendicular granite 
cliffs. Above the dam the turbulent waters of the river 
have been stilled in their rush to the Columbia and a re¬ 
markable lake 23 miles long has been formed. Little Falls, 
on the same auto trip, five miles farther down the river, 
are perhaps as grand and interesting as those at Long 
Lake. The same company also is developing power here 
by a project which ranks at the top of modern hydro¬ 
electric plant construction. 

There are other routes, some of them very interest¬ 
ing, by which Long Lake and Little Falls can be reached 
by auto from Spokane. Particulars of these can be ob¬ 
tained from the Service Travel Bureau at the office of 
the Washington Water Power Company.
